Heart - Opening Night Setlist is...

[daveg]

Actually, pretty damn good


Only 2 Zep covers, which I guess is fine.

But a pretty good mix of old and new.

3. "Love Alive"
4. "Roll the Dice"
5. "Magic Man"
6. "This Is Now" (Ann Wilson & Tripsitter cover)
7. "Little Queen"
8. "Straight On"
9. "Let's Dance" (David Bowie cover)
10. "These Dreams"
11. "Dog & Butterfly" (Acoustic)
12. "Dreamboat Annie" (Acoustic / first live performance since 2016)
13. "Going to California" (Led Zeppelin cover) (Acoustic)
14. "4 Edward" (Nancy Wilson song) (Acoustic)
15. "Mistral Wind"
16. "Alone" (i‐Ten cover)

Dang! I’m telling you people, the opportunity is right there for a “Surrender to Me” duet! Make it happen, Ann and Robin!

[Rocker4Real]

No "All I Wanna Do"? That song sticks out in my mind since many women have used me as a pretty boy Rocker in the past. They swear the kid isn't mine if I see them again.

[Spongie]

20 songs and they couldn’t make room for Stranded?

But 2 Zeppelin covers…

That one hasn't been in the setlist since the 90s, although Setlist.FM shows they played it once back in 2009 and Ann Wilson played it solo in 2017.

Is it true Ann finds it offensive? I think I heard that. Mutt wrote it. Maybe he's been used by women in the past.

I hate that song with a passion.

I think it's more that they view it as the nadir of their MTV sellout period, which it is.

[DemonFilth2001]

All I Wanna Do is one of their biggest hits. Absurd they won’t play one of their true classics for their fans.

[Rocker4Real]

"I Didn't Want To Need You" is a great one from Brigade as well. This album should be more celebrated. There's no shame in using outside writers when it's needed. The ladies used to rely on other band members to help write in the 70s.

[Dyslexicheart]

Heh, forgot that What About Love is actually a cover by an early 80's band called Toronto, who I actually saw in concert once. Big in western Canada!

Agree. It bookends their 3 album run of success!

[BernieTaupson]

Those dumb cunts were literally on TV a week and a half ago saying that they wouldn’t play any cover tunes on this tour.

[Nate S Axel]

That sucks. Are you going to try to get a refund on your tickets?

[WOLF]

This one has $25 concert week tickets written all over it… for the Fall leg.

[MattleyCrue]

Never is actually one of my biggest guilty pleasures!

[jaxjaguar]

They never play How Can I Refuse, always thought it should get more love. Cool deep cut for a full set. Enough with the Zeppelin.

[LAglamrocker]

Worst tour of the year…its not even close
Makes list for worse tour ever from start to finish..even that God awful Led Zepp tribute opens..just pure hell..actual hell

When is September Rainbow Bash 2024 announcement? Thats going be another legendary show…bring the rain again I don’t give a f*ck. When Will It Rain and chainsaw solo eventually at a Bash maybe September

[Domino]

No song from Brigade as usual. The fact that Heart still refuse to reckonize their 80's era as probably their most successful is weird since 80% of their public ask for that songs. But they insist with their zeppelish catalogue.

Yeah it sounds like shit live unfortunately.

definitely Brigade is my fave album by this band and it's crazy they don't play a song from it since 1991!

[BernieTaupson]

They’ve done All I Want To Do a few times after 91. Think 2013 was the last time.

[DrumminAway]

I know they’re pure cheese but I’d love to hear If Looks Could Kill, The Wolf, or Shell Shock.

What's wrong with playing the music you love instead of the music that was force-fed by the label? Especially when you already have millions in the bank.

[Mister Freeze]

They never play How Can I Refuse, always thought it should get more love.

Great song. It was a hint of the '80s sound to come before the self-titled album was released.

They could've done well rerecording/re-releasing that one as a single in the late '80s/early '90s.

[tooth]

Nothing At All & Who Will You Run To are solid tunes they used an outside writer on, as well.

[Rocker4Real]

How is Brigade more of a sellout than the '85 album? Good songs are good songs whether they're in the 80s style or not.

[Bono Nettencourt]

It was the 3rd time around, it was 1990, and All I Wanna Do was pretty damned trite. 98 Rock in Baltimore did a parody "All We Wanna Do Is Take Bucks from You".

[ParaDime77]

Nothing At All & Who Will You Run To are solid tunes they used an outside writer on, as well.

Man, those are two glossy, kick ass songs!

[BernieTaupson]

The sisters never wrote the stuff alone anyway, it used to be a real band. People give KISS shit for two guys taking it over and turning it into a brand Heart did the same thing. The original guys don’t even get a mention anymore. Nancy didn’t come ip with those early riffs it was Roger Fisher.
